    Pirelli AS plus 3 vs Michelin Defenders LTX M/S

    I have the Michelin Defenders on my 2016 Tahoe. Huge upgrade over the OEM Bridgestones. Very quiet and nice tight controlled ride.

    LED headlight success?

    I did the upgrade-no codes and made a huge difference in night driving. I used Supernova LEDs (http://www.supernovaleds.com/) after a lot of research. Fantastic lighting and a good warranty. The only issues I had were 1) removing the air intake box-find a good YouTube to guide you and 2)...

    Phone connection in 2016 Tahoe/Software Upgrade?

    I am having an issue that just recently appeared. When I have my iPhone 12 pro connected to Bluetooth in my 2016 Tahoe and try to call a number (using the name=example "Call Bob at home"), the response is "sorry, what type of destination, address, intersection or place of interest". However if...

    Another Headlight Question

    I have a ‘16 Tahoe and the lighting was really bad. So last winter (as my first of many Covid projects!) I upgraded the low and high beam lighting. After a ton of research I went with Supernova ( H11 for the lows, 9005 for the highs.). Incredible difference. The lows were simple to change...

    Problem with a set of LED headlights ?

    Without the caps, you will get water in and probably short out the led bulbs. You'll also get a lot of moisture in the headlight unit and where we live, that would mean you wouldn't get an inspection sticker. I installed a set of Supernova LEDs in my 16 Tahoe this week and the caps fit fine...

    Talk me out of it or into it

    I have a 2016 Tahoe LT with 36K and also tow. We have used this to tow a 4500 lb camper from Maine to NC and up to the Maritimes and lots of other places. No problems (yet) and we also keep our vehicles 10 years or so (just sold a 2004 BMW 330i with 130K and bought my wife a 2019 Audi Q5-which...

    Anybody in the north treat for rust?

We have a '16 Tahoe that we bought new in October '16 I run snows on it and after the first winter (the Tahoe was 6 months old!) when I was changing the snows, I noticed a LOT of surface rust on the...

    2016 Tahoe Infotainment Presets

    I have had my Tahoe for 2+ years (bought new). Had about 30 (of the 60) presets filled but now my screen is only showing 10 of the buttons (2 passes when I scroll r to l (or l to r). Anybody have any idea as to where the other presets went?

    Any body install transmission cooler 2015+ ?

    I have the same issue-my 2016 Tahoe regularly runs into the low 200's without towing. (208 yesterday in 73 degree weather on the highway at 70mph-only 2 people in the Hoe.) I do pull a 21 travel trailer (4000 lbs) and do not have the max tow package (which interestingly does NOT have an...

    iPhone 8 wireless charging

    I own a 16 LT Hoe-first American car I have owned since 1975. Bought this for a few reasons but one of them was the wireless charging. Went to the dealer last week for an oil change and complained that this wireless charger did not conform to the Qi specs. They tested it with a Samsung phone...

    Michelin Premier LTX or Michelin Defender or Bridgestone Dueler????

    We had a set of Duelers on a Grand Cherokee and they were okay-but noisy. Just sold a 4Runner and went through two sets of LTX M &S 2 tires-got 55K on the first set and had 50 on the second with tread that would still pass the Maine State inspection. Best tire i ever had. The new Hoe came with...
